双语阅读英语外刊精讲:指纹被人盗用了怎么办

2019-03-31 11:14:00来源:酷学英语

  This “back to analog” moment isn't just a knee-jerk, stopgap reaction to a short-term problem. It's a rational response to our increasingly insecure Internet, and we are going to see more of it ahead.

  As part of our research, in 2015 we developed a scenario for the not-so-distant future called “the New Normal,” in which consumers' baseline belief has flipped from “the internet is basically safe unless I do something stupid” to “the internet is fundamentally insecure, a dangerous neighborhood in which my safety is always at risk.” The impetus for the flipping in that scenario was a flurry of larger, ever more visible hacking attacks — of personal email accounts (Colin Powell and John Podesta) and corporate data (Yahoo and Sony), not to mention bank account information. Last week's ransomware attack may start to tip a significant proportion of Internet users over the edge.
